These changes will be effective on 30/10/2023, so please check your pending orders to ensure they meet the new minimum volume requirements.
Here's how this update might affect your trades:
The new minimum volume limit will require you to maintain higher capital reserves, which will also affect your margin requirements.
Similarly, the increased maximum volume will allow you to venture more capital and potentially gain larger amounts per trade.
Please note your open positions will not be affected or closed. You will still be able to close positions normally. However, pending orders below the new minimum volume will be rejected.
Your open trades can be closed as normal if the volume exceeds the new minimum requirement. Since the maximum and volume limits are increasing, there is no conflict with your existing open positions.
Please review your trading strategy and account requirements ahead of these volume limit changes on 30/10/2023.
